Background
The UK government should implement mandatory "method of slaughter" labeling for all meat products: "Stunned" or "Non-Stunned."
This promotes consumer choice, especially for religious and ethical reasons, and enhances transparency.
It requires broad consultation with stakeholders, practical industry support, and public education campaigns to succeed. Regular review is crucial.
No one should be forced to consume food which doesn't match their ethical choices and has the right to choose.
